Tops Magazine Sample Articles
There is much history below and I hope you find these articles as fascinating as I. Might I suggest starting here for something that I think alot of people will find interesting. It's about a play that is so so at best and will never make it to broadway, however the author was raving about the magician in the play, a young, relatively unknown 18 year old named David Copperfield. Or maybe how Neil Foster felt about one of Doug Hennings special's, you know the one, the one with the "Desert Sands" trick. Was Dunninger really going to give it to Karrell Fox? He certainly was asking for it in this recollection.
We have also tried to find articles that reflect the times, such as Percy Abbott cancelling the 1945 Get Together due to the war effort, or how about the courage of a husband and wife team performing USO shows in Vietnam, including performing at the same base where they're son was killed a year earlier! The tales and the moments go on and on....so enjoy!

We have attempted to provide articles that are still informative and deal with magic people, magic reviews, or magic presentations. We intentionally tried avoiding articles which reveal magic secrets! We have, however, included a few such articles to give representation to the authors and also give the younger audience an idea how tricks were presented in Tops. Any issue of Tops was full of magic tricks you could learn and each September there would be a special "All Tricks" issue that alone was worth more than the yearly subscription.
